Chocolate Covered Cashews Day – April 21 – Cashew Facts and Recipes

Who doesn’t love the taste of cashews and chocolates. April 21 celebrates them both as National Chocolate Covered Cashews Day. Your taste buds will delight in a combination of rich and decadent chocolate covering the outside of crunchy cashew nuts. Can you imagine a better taste?

I love celebrating the various foodie national days with some tasty recipes. It’s also fun to look back in history to see why each of these days deserve enough national attention to give the food its own national day.

Make some cashew chocolate clusters. It is super easy to do. Just line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Melt some dark chocolate chips and a bit of coconut oil in the microwave and stir in some raw cashews. Drop by spoonfuls on the paper and sprinkle with a few grains of sea salt. Allow to cool and enjoy.

Combine both cashews and chocolate in some tasty dessert recipes like the ones below.
